EDITORIAL REVIEWS ack on Top kicks off on an unpromising note with a generic blues shuffle, Goin' Down Geneva, that belies the album's cocky title. Van Morrison quickly redeems himself, however, with a set otherwise closer in its balance of rave-up and rev erie to his beloved early-'70s classics than much of his '90s output. Philosoph ers Stone is yet another position paper on the Belfast bard's art (My job is t urning lead into gold), but it's welcome for its relative absence of complaint. Elsewhere, he revisits familiar themes of survival (Back on Top), celebrity's price (New Biography), and mortality (Precious Time) in midtempo anthems la udable for deceptively buoyant tempos and crisp ensemble work. Vocally, his sign ature mix of rasp and croon proves as ripe as ever. --Sam Sutherland An eloquent balance of earthy musicality and spiritual restlessness. --Entertai nment Weekly.
